Interação do aluno leitor com o livro infantojuvenil antirracista: percepções, sentidos, vivências e aprendizados

Abstract

This research entitled “Interaction of the student reader with the anti-racist children's book: perceptions, meanings, experiences and learning” is linked to Profletras-UFOPA and follows the line of research “Children's literature, literature and education, reader training”. This is a study proposal that aims to investigate the potential of children's literature with anti-racist themes and structures, with a view to providing critical conditions for readers in the 6th year of Elementary School through contact with a collection designated for this research. For the development of research and application of the intervention project at the aforementioned school, first, the exploratory phase of the research will take place, a period reserved for preliminary inquiries about the object and study, the assumptions and theories that support the development of the project and operational issues to subsidize the subsequent phase. Qualitative research emphasizes reader training as necessary elements of the human condition, creating conditions for social interaction in a critical environment that can reflect values that encompass anti-racist behaviors. The reflections of this study point to methodologies focused on reading, oral and written production and, for this, it became necessary to apply a sociodemographic questionnaire on the target audience of this research and a script of questions that will direct the conversation circles and reading circles, using the books read by students. For the research that addresses the education of racial relations in Basic Education, as well as on the importance of reading and anti-racist literature in school, Munanga (2000), Almeida (2005), Pires (2005), Ribeiro (2014), Martins (1994), Oliveira (1999), Cavalleiro (2001), Gomes (2012), Candido (2011), Britto (2012, 2015), Bértolo (2014), Saviani and Duarte (2010). This study is relevant both because it meets what is established in Law 10,639/2003, which deals with the mandatory teaching of Afro-Brazilian and African history and culture and ethnic-racial education, and because we propose to answer questions present in the teaching of anti-racist literature.
